Sounds cool Dave. Please keep us up to date on this blues rock project. Daryl

Hi Dave, I hope it's just me being to picky. We hadn't played together for almost two months. I thought some of our endings were sloppy. Our lead guitarist was have problems with her pedal board. At times I thought the guitars were out of tune. And for this crowd we could have had more dance material. However, the song flow was good, no dead air between songs. There was always something happening on stage. Daryl

Thanks again , I had a bad night. I'll be fine as soon we have a good gig under our belts again. Daryl

I'm won't jump ship yet Stub. I do think it would be nice to investigate dep opportunities. Thanks Stub Daryl

Thanks Pete, The lack of a good drummer concerns me, but should I be worried about something out of my control at my age ? Maybe I'll stick with it. Maybe I'm overreacting to the bad gig last night. Daryl

Thanks Martthebass, I'm going to go with the flow. Daryl

Daryl Thanks dclaassen I need the money so I think hanging in there is the best option. Daryl

Thursday night at The Fox Town Annex in Mequon. I thought we were sloppy. It hasn't been announced but I think our drummer dumped us. He's turned down 8 summer bookings. Great drummer and singer but apparently isn't into us. I was really good about chatting at tables with the punters. I had put a few scripts together that worked very well. Good crowd and a lot of dancing. I guess people are easy to please. I'm starting to question the direction of the band. But where could I find another money making band at 72 years old? Daryl

Me too. Daryl

Me too. Daryl

The band sounds great and the lighting is very nice. Daryl

Sounds like a good gig Dave. I've got my first 2026 gig Thursday night at The Fox Town in Mequon. It'll be a half hour commute. I'm not sure if I'm driving or riding in the van. It's an upscale bar / restaurant that does a fantastic job with local bands. Nice room with a very nice stage. We'll be providing our own sound. We'll bring minimal lighting and smoke. The place has a built in crowd. This is our second gig there. Last time the place was packed. Daryl

I have a few pics in a dress. But none are good enough to post. Lol 😆 Daryl

Agreed. What a cool opportunity Daryl

Great information, even if it is over my head. I'm way out of date. I just dial in a low stage volume and enough high and low end I can hear. Then I just hope the sound engineer has me where I'm supposed to be. Daryl
